CF-18

During OPERATION ALLIED FORCE, the 79-day NATO air campaign in former Yugoslavia from March to June of 1999, Canada committed 18 CF-18s to TASK FORCE AVIANO, flying from Aviano Air Base in northern Italy. CF-18s flew 678 sorties, in the air-to-ground and air-to-air roles using both precision guided munitions and unguided "iron" bombs. With much less than 10% of the aircraft committed to the campaign, Canadian aircraft conducted 10% of the NATO strike sorties during the campaign.

    • 那时候的保守党可跟现在的保守党不一样,现在保守党里可是过去的极右的改革党和联盟党的天下...选这样的党主持加拿大的外交,军事还有移民政策,可真不让人放心..
      • 记得CHUCK CADMAN? 那个以选民为重救了自由党政府的议员. 他就是改革党/联盟党的代表.和东部的精英统治格格不入.
        • 不要忘了人家和Harper合不来退党了
          • CADMAN退党是因为他不满保守党为了迎合东部的进保党偏离了改革党/联盟党草根主义而空降候选人到他的选区.
      • good point,harper 支持台独,主张和台湾建交,支持派兵伊拉克,很多native都不喜欢过分亲美的harper。
        • 从历史大事来看觉得自由党盲目讨好米国。例如1998年,加军没有获 美国邀请,在自由党党领一声号令, 轰炸机 立即出动炸 Kosovo小国,为了讨好米国不惜卷入 劳民伤财的不义之战。 不惜凌驾于国会之上。
          • 加拿大出动过轰炸机?

      • 改革党/联盟党是草根主义党. 只有站在极左的立场上才会觉得他们是极右.
        • I agree. Conservatives is for us - middle-class people. Liberals only take good care of their buddies(RICH buddies)
          • Right on! The Lefties want to turn the country in 2 classed society. The elites, means them who know the rights and PC. The other is the poor.
